Well, here is your opportunity to do so because we’re looking for a manager to lead the service at one of our new children’s homes in Gloucester which we’re currently preparing to register with Ofsted.</p>\n<p>We know that outcomes for care leavers are often poor and that preparation to enable them to fulfil their potential as adults, can fall short at times. We have therefore designed this provision within a large, detached Victorian house. This will allow us to address this recognised need for young people and enable us to help prepare them as early as possible, all within a stable and supportive environment. We have spared no expense in terms of the refurbishment of the building, which comprises a mix of traditional bedrooms (all en-suite) and self-contained semi-independent flats for up to 8 young people. The accommodation is of an exceptionally high standard as we want our young people to have the best start when supporting them in care and with their transition to independence.</p>\n<p>Having successfully recruited to a number of key positions, and with preparation underway to develop a comprehensive induction, ongoing training and support package, we are making excellent headway in realising our vision to establish a diverse range of local children’s homes.
